So how many of you actually tap to this move?

If I'm correct about this move its the same as the wrestling guillotine....
 
Never been twistered myself. I'm sure it would suck though.

I've had it done drilling in BJJ and Wrestling, but the move is nothing to tap to, at least in the hundreds of different times and twenty different people that I have drilled it with.
 
It is the guillotine in wrestling. I actually use it in BJJ sometimes, Eddie Bravo sets it up from halfguard, but i haven't really mastered that. Usually when i go cross body the guy tries to roll out of it and a scramble starts, or they will just kind of be confused and freeze up and you can go for it, also in the rare instance the guy will lift his far leg up and you can get the banana split.
 
i have had eddie bravo do this to me during sparring. yes, true story
 
couldnt this move potentially break your neck if you dont tap? its a neck crank? if so, why would you think of not tapping for even a second once this is on you!?

no it hurts your shoulder more than anything... my sparing partner is wrestling is this tall lanky fucker(like 6'2 145) and he is a leg rider when he sinks it in you better roll to yo9ur back if you want to keep your rotar cuff intact

I feel it in my neck pretty good... when I was first starting BJJ my brother was trying to show me all kinds of wrestlings moves (I started BJJ before wrestling) and I can tell you that I felt in my neck... felt like he could have torn me to shreds with it.
 
the way i've had it put on me by gene dunn....oh yeah i tapped really fast.

ever been squeezed in it when somebody's not trying to go for a pin? i've had a ref tag me with unnecessary roughness in high school cuz i made my opponent squeel. i used to do it to this one freshman almost every day in wrestling practice because he made the funniest noises when i squeezed as hard as i could.
